Corelation of Experimental and Analytical Response of a 1:12 Scale 10-Story Masonry-Infilled R.C. Frame

10층 조적채움 R.C. 골조의 비선형 거동에 대한 해석과 실험의 상관성 연구

Nowadays, the pushover analysis technique is becoming a very useful tool for the prediction of inelastic behavior of structures in the seismic evaluation of existing buildings in the world. However, the reliability of this analysis method has not been fully checked by the test results. The objective of this study is to verify the correlation between the analytical and experimental response of a high-rise masonry infilled reinforced concrete frame using DRAIN-2DX program and the test results performed previously. This study concludes that the strength and stiffness of members can be predicted with quite high reliability while the ductility capacity of members can not be described reasonably.
